Ahhhh... the 80's.






Here's some scans I got from my family's Childcraft encyclopedias. I've been looking for a particular late 70's-early 80's illustration style and rummaged though some old books. Hilarity! These photos are are a good indication of why we young people in our twenties are love kitchy crap from childhood. I love the image of the small child using the saw! We need to trust kids in workshops more often :) Oh, and the shell cleaning one is disturbing- just gather the animal-cruelty endorsed in the snippets of text. Good times. Serial killers in training. At any rate, nice, clean drawings+creepy subjects+hideous colors=fun childhood!
